Understand applications for aromatherapy that are used to improve well-being.

Aromatherapy is the use of scent – or aroma – for therapeutic purposes. (Although it is sometimes referred to as the use of fragrance, fragrance has a specific meaning tied to concentration of active ingredient.)

There are many ways to leverage the therapeutic power of scent, from using candles and incense through to washing with particular hair and body products. Oils are also used in a variety of ways, including massage, or as a complement to alternative health treatments. Understanding the principles of aromatherapy, and the benefits of the most common scents, can be useful in a variety of contexts within and without the health world.
